Mount Vernon Nursing & Rehabilitation sits in a quiet, rural area close to the Mt Vernon Town Square, where residents can easily get to grocery stores, coffee shops, gas stations, restaurants, pharmacies, and banks, so there's plenty nearby if anyone needs something or just wants a little change of scenery, and the building itself is wheelchair accessible to make it simple for residents to move around. The facility provides nursing and rehabilitation services, with experienced staff who know senior healthcare well and take their work seriously, offering long-term care and respite care if families need a break or if a resident needs to stay for a short or longer time. They also provide short-term rehabilitation services that help people regain strength and skills after a hospital stay or illness, and the Moving Forward Rehabilitation and Skilled Nursing Care programs, which means they're ready to handle different needs as they come up for seniors.
Mount Vernon Nursing & Rehabilitation serves residents from Mt. Vernon and the broader Posey County area, and the care team tries to support both residents and their families, with staff who often become like an extra set of hands for people because they value building a community atmosphere. Different floor plans are available if someone's curious about room types, and there's a secure, home-like setting, especially for long-term and memory care residents, which many folks find comforting. The facility accepts credit cards, has restrooms on site, and offers hospice and palliative care, focusing on keeping residents comfortable and managing pain, especially when someone's at the end of life or facing serious illness.
The care team includes doctors, nurses, therapists, social workers, and others who are committed to finding answers and peace of mind for seniors. Some services, like having a full-time Nurse Practitioner and Deaconess physicians, are offered at North Park Nursing Center, which is related to this facility, so some medical care might happen there if needed. Mount Vernon Nursing & Rehabilitation is part of American Senior Communities, which means they use some exclusive care programs like the Road to Recovery and have outpatient therapy for those who need extra help with strength and mobility. They've got wound care, fall prevention, mobility training, and contracture management too, all handled by people who know what they're doing, and the memory care programs use research-based approaches that are person-focused and try to help each person stay as independent as possible. The facility focuses on helping residents manage daily tasks, recover from setbacks, and enjoy meaningful activities each day, and because it's a for-profit community, services are always managed carefully. The whole place is designed to support seniors at different stages, whether dealing with illness, injury, or simply needing a secure place to call home.
